For those who have never stayed there, I will be quite honest. It is a very small place, with rather dingy rooms, and was hit hard during the hurricane a year ago. They had begun some renovations last year, and I stayed in one of the redone rooms, with tiled floor rather than the old carpet, which was better. When I called today, the gentleman said they are having problems with the contractor, who walked off the job after trying to get more money.
SO, what I want to say is that it is unclear what the condition of the rooms will be...he said they hope to have new carpet installed by Feb...we'll see. I will still stay there, because it is the only hotel in Sneads, and I'm too lazy to drive to Marianna!
On another note, as in past years, I will be driving down from Chapel Hill, NC, in my Expedition, pulling a trailer loaded with some Cub Express items. I'm not sure which trailer I will use, since I haven't decided whether I will also bring a tractor to work on. In any case, I will have PLENTY of room for additional riders, if anyone wants to ride down with me. I can go the faster I-95 to I-10 route, or down through Atlanta, depending on if I have a rider or another Express request (I could bring my 18' trailer with lots of room for "stuff").
So let me know if you (or something else) need a ride to the first, and one of the best, Cubfests of the year!
